Book cover for The Bookshop on the Shore (Scottish Village of Kirrenfief Book 2)
‘Well, anyway,’ Ramsay went on, ‘it’s code. The word “book” comes from the word ‘beech’. It’s what they were originally made out of. You knew you could store your library here.’

Barack Obama
“I don’t know. What I can say for certain is that I’m not yet ready to abandon the possibility of America—not just for the sake of future generations of Americans but for all of humankind. For I’m convinced that the pandemic we’re currently living through is both a manifestation of and a mere interruption in the relentless march toward an interconnected world, one in which peoples and cultures can’t help but collide. In that world—of global supply chains, instantaneous capital transfers, social media, transnational terrorist networks, climate change, mass migration, and ever-increasing complexity—we will learn to live together, cooperate with one another, and recognize the dignity of others, or we will perish. And so the world watches America—the only great power in history made up of people from every corner of the planet, comprising every race and faith and cultural practice—to see if our experiment in democracy can work. To see if we can do what no other nation has ever done. To see if we can actually live up to the meaning of our creed.”
Barack Obama, A Promised Land

Jonathan Franzen
“He was realizing too late that old people weren't entirely stupid.”
Jonathan Franzen, Crossroads

Matthew McConaughey
“Persist, pivot, or concede. It’s up to us, our choice every time.”
Matthew McConaughey, Greenlights

William Kent Krueger
“that people are most afraid of things they don’t understand, and if something frightened you, you should get closer to it. That didn’t mean it wouldn’t still be an awful thing, but the awful you knew was easier to handle than the awful you imagined.”
William Kent Krueger, This Tender Land

Hua Hsu
“Derrida remarked that friendship’s driver isn’t the pursuit of someone who is just like you. A friend, he wrote, would “choose knowing rather than being known.” I had always thought it was the other way around.”
Hua Hsu, Stay True: A Memoir
